The Real Culprit Behind the 2G Scam Exposed!

Dear Telecom Minister, do tell
Who's to blame for this 2G mess? "Well,
It's a perfect clear case
(Like the nose on your face)
That the chief culprit is, Graham Bell!"

With blame flying thick and fast over the 2G scam, the Supreme Court ruling saw the Telecom Minister deflect the blame, saying that it vindicated the UPA government. A joke going around on Twitter is that the blame ultimately lies with - who else but Graham Bell?

The Bollywood Slap to Fame

The wait has been long; Inkspot's terse.
Could this be the end? Writer's curse?
But a complaint in rhyme,
Came through just in time --
And inspired in Inkspot, a verse.

Sujatha, this one, on the recent Bollywood slap story, is dedicated to you :-)

In Mumbai, there lived a young man,
Who came up, one day, with a plan
To get famous quick
(It was foolproof, the trick)
And that's how this whole thing began.

The trick was this - target a star
Then tease and provoke him so far,
That he slaps you, whereby,
Your plan hits bull's eye--
You're trending, you're famous, you are!!
